OT, but thought some would enjoy this with your nightcaps, morning
coffee, or... whatever.

afternoon in early September, an architect boarded his commuter train
and became a cellphone vigilante. He sat down next to a 20-something
woman who he said was "blabbing away" into her phone.
"She was using the word `like' all the time. She sounded
like a Valley Girl," said the architect, Andrew, who declined to
give his last name because what he did next was illegal.
======================================================== And some of the
letters in response are even better. Like: 1. As my fellow riders
rolled their eyes and gritted their teeth, I turned my head slightly
over my shoulder and yelled (I have a pretty strong yell), "Shaddup
already!" 2. "Could you speak just a bit louder they
can't quite hear you in Brooklyn." 3. You want to talk real
loud about, like, nothing? You can do that at home as much as you want.
Oh, you don't want to waste your time at home talking about nothing?
O.K., then save it for work. No one expects anything else of you there
anyway. Excerpted from letters: Click here: When Your Cellphone Is

Now if only someone would invent a device to zap or embarrass litterers.
Quite a civil society, eh? [;)]
